The 24-year-old player was randomly selected for a secondary screening at Terminal 1 and became uncooperative with the process, airport police Sgt. Karla Ortiz said. She said he told a TSA agent that he had a bomb before walking to the gate. When airport police officers caught up with him, Ortiz said Smith became uncooperative and was taken into custody.

If he was dumb enough to say Bomb! as some kind of joke, Aldon deserves every book that gets thrown at him.

From a logical perspective, they would rather just have somebody walk up to the screening area and blow themselves up unannounced?

Imbeciles on duty were probably doing the cretin hop in glee.

The quality of the athletes is really low when it comes to social reality.

And the fodder the TSA recruits from is just how much better?

Flown out of LAX lately? TSA obviously recruits from south-central LA exclusively.

Ahh, the off-season! A head coach’s nightmare!

[DIRTYSECRET]

Been there. We need more Aldon Smiths.

Guess he didn't get the "Lick the feet of your Fedcoat massas like your slave forebears" memo...

Without the facts I will defend him. We’ve all been there, we’ve all been there.

Agreed. I would believe him before any of the TSA agents.

She said he told a TSA agent that he had a bomb before walking to the gate.

Anybody not in the TSA hear him say it? If not, I'll consider it a fabrication.

[Busko]

I agree, but these ‘so-called’ role models are supposed to be above that gangsta crap. Yes I have flown out of the arm pit of TSA Philly and other welfare run TSA airports.

Ok, I stand corrected. But one hockey player compared to how football and basketball players.
